AI & Automation
Every AI Agent Needs an Owner. We Take the Job.
Your team builds the agents. Nectar governs them, secures them and keeps them working, in the same Microsoft 365 environment we already protect.
Governance Starts Now, Not When the First Agent Arrives
Copilot and AI agents are already arriving in Microsoft 365 environments. Without clear rules, the right permissions and someone looking after them, they become a new risk and a new source of surprises.
Nectar already runs your IT and your security. We apply the same discipline to AI: clear rules before agents go live, agents treated like staff with access, and a team that keeps them working.

AI Governance — Clear Rules Before Agents Go Live
Good governance is what lets a business use AI with confidence. We put the policy, the permissions and the approvals in place first.
A Safe and Responsible AI Use Policy
A clear policy for your business, so your team knows what is allowed, what is not and why.
Who Can Build, and What They Can Touch
Clear rules on who can build agents and which data they may use, before the first agent goes live.
Permissions Cleaned Up First
SharePoint and Microsoft 365 permissions are cleaned up before agents arrive, so an agent cannot surface what your staff should not see.
An Approval Step Before Production
Every agent is reviewed before it goes into use, so nothing reaches your people untested.
Copilot Readiness
Copilot can reach anything a user can. We check your data, permissions and licensing before it is switched on for more of your team.
AI Workloads — Nectar Keeps Them Working
An agent is not a one-off project. It needs monitoring, updating, reviewing and eventually retiring, like any other part of your technology.
Monitoring, Fixes and Updates
When something breaks, we fix it. When something needs updating, we update it, so your agents keep working.
Changes Reviewed and Tested
Changes are reviewed and tested before they reach your users.
A Quarterly Review of Every Agent
We review what each agent does and whether it should still exist, with you, every quarter.
Retire Agents Cleanly
When staff leave or processes change, agents are retired cleanly, with access and connections removed.
Workflow Automation
We design and implement automation that removes repetitive work, using the Microsoft tools you already own.
Copilot Adoption and Enablement
A trusted partner from data preparation through to deployment and ongoing optimisation, so your team gets real value from AI.
AI Security — NecSec Guard
AI agents hold identities, connect to your data and act on behalf of your people. NecSec Guard treats them like staff with access, with the same care we give the rest of your security.
Least-Privilege Identities
Each agent gets only the identity and permissions it needs, and nothing more.
Agent Activity Monitored
Agent activity is monitored alongside the rest of your environment, so unusual behaviour is seen and dealt with.
Stopping Sensitive Data Leaving
Controls to stop sensitive data leaving your business through an agent.
Credentials and Connections Protected
The keys, tokens and connections agents rely on are kept out of the wrong hands.
Part of Your Security Service
AI security sits alongside NecSec Defend and NecSec Protect, so it is one team and one standard, not another tool to manage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Nectar build AI agents?
We design and implement automation and AI solutions where that is what you need. Our governance, security and care services apply to agents built by your team, by us or by anyone else, so every agent has an owner.
We only use Copilot. Do we still need AI governance?
Yes. Copilot can reach anything your users can, so permissions and policy matter from day one, not when the first agent arrives.
What is NecSec Guard?
NecSec Guard is Nectar’s AI security service. It treats agents like staff with access: least-privilege identities, monitored activity, controls on data leaving and protected credentials, delivered by the same team that secures the rest of your environment.
How is AI governance and care priced?
It is scoped once the first agent is confirmed, so the price reflects what you are actually running. Book a strategy call and we will talk it through.
